Update...
I removed the back part of the center console and was able to pull the console liner out. OEM sub/amp fit right in. I have attached the side screws to secure it. I will have the Best Buy installer run power to the OEM sub/amp tomorrow when I have the head unit installed. I also bought the subwoofer console storage tray ($43) so I still have a place to put a piece of gum & a pen.
Now, I'm going to work on installing the 6.5 sound bar speakers in the spot for 5.25s
Thanks.
Hey Everyone,
New to the site and I apologize if this is a redundant post. I looked through several but I did not see one addressing my questions.
I have a 2006 Unlimited with 4 speaker factory system. I just bought a Kenwood HD942U head unit, Infinity 6422cfp 4x6s for the front (after reading posts I should have went with 5.25s), Infinity 6022s 6.5s for the soundbar.
I have installed the front speakers with no problems. My first question is installing the 6.5s in the sound bar, do I use both the plastic & metal frames sent with the speakers? Crutchfield does not indicate these will fit but after reading on other sites, I found other people have installed them.
I have also bought a new OEM subwoofer for the console. My system does not have a factory subwoofer installed. The console has the subwoofer grill on the driver's side but it has a panel behind it. Do I need to cut a hole inside the console liner or get a replacement liner designed for the subwoofer? I have ordered the subwoofer console tray but I don't know if it will have a different liner with it. This part arrives tomorrow with the subwoofer but they were not sold together.
The head unit installation is more than I feel capable of tackling, so I'm having Best Buy install it and want them to connect the subwoofer at the same time.
I wish I would have found this site before I decided to upgrade.
I appreciate your advise & expertise.
Thanks,
David
